Artist: BombersLP: 12" single
Here's a terrific 1979 disco single on West End Records that I found (still sealed!) for $1 at the Goodwill in Mitchell, South Dakota—you know, just before I went to The Corn Palace. I stayed the night at a neat little place called the Coach Light Motel; they still had a bunch of old motel souvenir postcards for sale in the office for a dime. The place evidently hasn't changed much over the years, as you can see. I was in unit #20 on the far right; here's what it says on the back of the postcard:

What a pity we didn't know then to preserve our clouds. Who would know they'd all disappear!
